wealthy white tech assholes on fedi will donate to fucking eugen (who contributes NOTHING to ANYTHING) before they give a starving trans person ten dollars for a sandwich, to say nothing of the fundraiser for kkkopmala and all the other bullshit projects they just throw money at while i see the same dozen people literally begging for money so they can eat or not get evicted. i donated more money than these six figure dipshits when i was making $20/hr at the grocery store and gave both of my covid checks away entirely. these days i make enough to keep my head above water but not by much and at the same time there’s crypto freaks and ai grifters raking in cash hand over fist while their fedi neighbors can’t buy food for their kids.

it just makes me furious

yes i am telling you what to do with your money, if you have more of it than you need. you can give it now, willingly, wipe a little grime off your shriveled soul, or you can give it at gunpoint later.

if you have even a trace of human feeling left in your shitty rich heart you will sponsor someone for life and it will be a mere fraction of the spoils you reap, and that person just might stick up for you when the revolution comes

i was living in a house with broken windows for three years in southern appalachia. do you know how fucking cold it has to be to see your breath inside, or for your doorknobs and shit to get frosted over? ever seen ice on the inside of a window? i was only able to fix that because my mom gave me some money from selling our old house. and that’s still hugely privileged!! i’m incredibly lucky!

fuck this capitalism shit!!!

and as far as dansup and pixelfed goes, i remember ginny mcqueen and others calling that piece of shit person and software out for harassment and bigotry in like 2018. utterly undeserving of anyone’s time, attention, and especially money.

how about instead of funding dumb ass foss project no. 4725184 you help a poor person fucking eat.

@stone I think about this shit all the time. During covid lockdowns I was on unemployment, and almost every week at least half (if not the entire) $600 bonus would go to mutual aid asks. I was able to save up a bit, which immediately was drained when we had to move, and I had people who were employed during the entirety if covid blaming me for needing to ask for help once unemployment ended

@justabean i was making $30/hr overtime from march-august of 2020 as an “essential” grocery worker so i was able to give some folks some money. saved a friend from like $700+ dollars of overdrafts. when i moved to work at the cafe, i had absolutely no bills cause i was living there as well, but i was making less so i couldn’t give as much away. but even then i still did.

since i bought my house i haven’t been able give anything and have woken up with $0 in checking several times. i’m getting by but it breaks my fucking heart to see how many people need like $20 for a bus ticket and these six figure salary motherfuckers just ignore it
